Living on a Dungeon World kind of sucks when you are one of the smallest species of humanity. It wasn’t easy being a kobold living in a small town in the Virginia Mountains. While Edwin was safe from the gangs that seemed to own the city streets, he was also apparently safe from doing anything of note with his life. Dreams of magic and adventure only existed for him in books and movies, until he came face to face with a dungeon monster.
Now trapped in a seemingly endless series of dungeons, Edwin must get stronger or die. After all, The System rewarded those that pushed their limits and faced danger. And while it would take extraordinary will and strength to survive, Edwin was one grumpy little kobold.
Dungeon World Earth is a place of conflict. Set in a modern day Earth that has been System Integrated for thousands of years, magic meets cybernetics as humanity strives to thrive on a world created to test them.

This one was an absolute delight. The main character, Edwin, is a small, perpetually grumpy kobold who never asked for any of this. He's forced to face life-and-death situations in a modern version of Earth that has been integrated into the system for years already—something he never would have had to deal with except in his craziest, most unlikely dreams. Watching this reluctant little creature get dragged into danger after danger was both hilarious and surprisingly gripping. The action is solid, the humor lands well, and the narration brings Edwin's perpetual exasperation to life perfectly. He may complain the whole way, but he keeps pushing forward, and that made him incredibly easy to root for. If you're looking for something a bit lighter in tone but still packed with stakes and heart, this one is well worth your time.
